Reborn to prepare for the college entrance exam, you're letting me retire and make a comeback?

On the playground of Jiangcheng No. 1 Middle School, Lu Qian's eyes widened slightly as he looked at the girl who was smiling sweetly at him.

"Grandmaster, what's going on?"

"I miscalculated! I should have skipped this class!"

Not to mention that he used to skip PE class every day, and after being reborn, he knew nothing about the information on the timetable, so how would he know that he would be having the same PE class as Shen Xinyi?!

An invisible battlefield suddenly crashed down on him.

He almost instinctively scanned Shen Xinyi's surroundings.

—Zhang Qian isn't here!

Thankfully, there were only two.

No matter how much you say, he can't solve it.

In the past, he would have happily accepted Shen Xinyi's invitation.

But he just promised Lin Shuyue, how could he turn around and stand her up?

CPU instantaneous overload.

He opened his mouth, but his throat tightened, and he couldn't utter a single word.

Just as he was stuck, another displeased voice rang out beside him.

"Lu Qian?"

Lin Shuyue had somehow walked up to his side, almost touching his arm.

She called out to him first, then turned her gaze to Shen Xinyi: "Oh, Shen, what are you doing here? What were you two talking about?"

There was a subtle, probing look in his eyes.

After all, she had just seen Lu Qian walking with this pretty girl a few days ago, and now they were getting along so well during PE class, so the girl felt inexplicably unhappy.

His tone was sarcastic, but not overtly so.

"Hi, hello there, Lin!"

Shen Xinyi, unaware of Lin Shuyue's thoughts, maintained her bright and natural smile.

They are both top students in their grade and have known each other since they were in a competition. Their relationship isn't that distant.

"I asked Lu Qian if he could teach me how to play badminton later!"

She looked at Lin Shuyue with an open and honest gaze: "After all, Lu Qian is really good at playing basketball. I studied with him for a while at noon and felt I've improved a lot!"

The girl subconsciously stomped her little feet, as if it was some kind of stress response to being touched.

The words "I studied with him for a while at noon" pierced Lin Shuyue's nerves like a red-hot needle.

Hmph, no wonder they made me take a nap by myself at noon, turns out they went to play ball with a pretty female classmate!

Displeasure flashed quickly across her eyes, and her small face tightened.

"But……"

After thinking for a moment, Lin Shuyue suddenly raised her chin slightly and looked at Shen Xinyi: "He just promised me that he would teach me."

She paused, then emphasized, "Shen, there's always a proper order to things, isn't there?"

Upon hearing this, Shen Xinyi's smile faded slightly.

Since the other party had already gone this far, she naturally knew what Lin Shuyue wanted to say to her.

But she did not back down.

My little feet were touched by Lu, have you?

hum!

"First come, first served?"

She blinked, looking at Lin Shuyue: "But I already told him beforehand that he would teach me!"

She glanced at Lu Qian: "I already told him the day before yesterday that I wanted him to teach me how to play basketball. You just told him during PE class, right?"

"..."

Upon hearing this, Lin Shuyue was instantly speechless.

Shen Xinyi is telling the truth.

Shen Xinyi had already made the reservation the day before yesterday, while Lin Shuyue had quietly made the appointment before the group disbanded.

In terms of timing, Shen Xinyi had the advantage of being "first".

Lin Shuyue opened her mouth, wanting to argue further, unwilling to back down.

"..."

Seeing the strong smell of gunpowder in the air, Lu Qian felt a chill run down his spine.

The old scumbag's intuition told him that if he let the two ambiguous relationships continue like this, things were about to explode.

He quickly interrupted before the conflict could erupt, saying, "Uh... well, I think it's not impossible for me to teach both of you at the same time..."

He made a pause gesture with both hands, forced a smile, and said, "Well, I've played against both of you before, and I think your skill levels are about the same. Why don't you two play a game first?"

"In this lesson, I'll teach you two to play one-on-one. Then, whoever wins the match later will play against me first, and then I'll play against the next person. Do you think that's fair and reasonable?"

As soon as he finished speaking, the two girls, who were on the verge of exchanging barbs, turned around at the same time and glared at him fiercely.

"Pah, who wants to fight you!"

in unison.

"Cough cough..."

Lu Qian shrank his neck, looking embarrassed.

He really didn't dare say anything more.

While the two girls on the other side were saying no, their actions betrayed their true feelings.

After expressing their shared "dislike" for Lu Qian, they glanced at each other and turned to walk towards the empty badminton court next to them.

Let's settle this, woman!

The two walked to opposite sides of the field and stood facing each other across the net.

"How many points will decide the winner?" Shen Xinyi asked, gripping her racket and raising her voice, her eyes sharp.

Lin Shuyue retorted defiantly, "11 goals!"

"no."

Shen Xinyi immediately retorted, "11 balls is too many. We don't have that much time to play in PE class. Let's finish this quickly with 7 balls."

"...Okay, 7 goals it is!" Lin Shuyue hesitated for a moment and then immediately agreed.

The two, usually gentle and mild-mannered, displayed an unprecedented level of competitiveness at this moment.

"Well……"

Over here, Lu Qian reluctantly agreed to be the referee.

Standing at the net, the old scumbag was stumped again: "Uh... so who serves first?"

"Rock, paper, scissors!" the two shouted in unison again.

"Alright."

Although the solution was crude, it was the only other option.

The two then made a small, white fist gesture.

Shen Xinyi drew scissors, and Lin Shuyue drew cloth.

"Yay!" Shen Xinyi gave a small pump and a smug smile.

"Hmph!" Lin Shuyue pursed her lips and silently walked to the hair extension area, her eyes becoming even more focused.

Two young girls stood on separate beds, the setting sun casting their graceful shadows on the earth as it shone on their slender, beautiful bodies.

War is imminent.

The one-on-one duel between two beauties with very different styles instantly ignited the playground.

"Holy crap?! Shen Xinyi from Class 8 and Lin Shuyue from Class 7 are going to have a match?"

"Look, look! She's a stunning beauty!"

"..."

The students who were playing ball, running, or reading all stopped and swarmed around, crowding the court in layers.

Beautiful girls playing ball are a feast for the eyes and there's plenty of drama to watch, who wouldn't love it?

Soon, the two sides of the badminton court were clearly divided.

The boys in Lu Qian's class shamelessly became the class monitor's staunch cheerleaders.

"Go, class monitor! Take her down!"

"You'll definitely win in Shuyue! Class 7's reputation rests on your shoulders!"

"..."

Meanwhile, Shen Xinyi's classmates were not to be outdone.

"Keep it up, Xinyi! You're the best!"

"Go, sister! You'll win!"

"..."

Cheers and shouts echoed across the playground, creating an atmosphere more enthusiastic than any school event. Even Mr. Liu, who was slacking off in the distance, peeked out to watch.

Indeed, in this world, good looks still reign supreme.

This also shows how popular these two girls are in their grade; otherwise, such a scene wouldn't have occurred.

On the badminton court, Shen Xinyi stood behind the service line with the shuttlecock in her hand, took a deep breath, and had a sharp look in her eyes.

She had a certain foundation, and Lu Qian gave her some pointers at noon.

The movements were standardized and the force was applied appropriately.

Pooh!

With a flick of the wrist, a beautiful high, arcing shot hurtled straight towards Lin Shuyue's baseline in the backcourt.

Lin Shuyue was clearly out of practice; her footwork was erratic, and her returns were poorly executed.

Shen Xinyi seized the opportunity and delicately dropped the ball at the net.

Lin Shuyue made a desperate save, but it was just a little short.

"1:0!" Lu Qian announced the score.

Next, Shen Xinyi pressed her advantage, relying on her stable skills and experience to win two more games.

"3:0!"

"Xinyi, you're so amazing! I love you to death!"

Shen Xinyi's cheerleading squad erupted in cheers.

Meanwhile, Lin Shuyue's supporters were extremely anxious.

Class monitor, stay calm!

For the fourth ball, Shen Xinyi once again served a high and deep serve.

This time, Lin Shuyue didn't blindly return to Gaoyuan. She tried to hit a diagonal shot. The angle wasn't too tricky, but the speed was a bit too fast.

After a few rounds, Shen Xinyi returned the ball slightly high. Lin Shuyue's eyes lit up, and she instinctively jumped up and smashed the ball with all her might!

"Snapped!"

The ball hit Shen Xinyi's court.

"3:1!"

"Class monitor scored!"

Class 7 erupted in cheers, having won a round.

This shot seemed to flip a switch for Lin Shuyue, and she stopped being passive and began to take the initiative to attack, showing a significant increase in her strength.

"3:2!"

"3:3!"

"Now the two are even."

Lu Qian reported the score, his palms sweating.

It's strange, even though it's the two of them playing, why am I the most nervous one?

Standing to the side, Zhang Liu looked at Lu Qian, who was covered in sweat, and silently shook his head: "What a disaster!"

Happy being single.

Xiao Liuzi became happy again.

With the score tied, the atmosphere on both sides became incredibly heated, with cheers clashing fiercely. In particular, since Lin Shuyue had just won three consecutive points, the morale of Class 7 was also soaring.

"4:3!"

The proud little green plum got more and more energetic as she played, and eventually overtook them.

However, Shen Xinyi was no pushover and quickly caught up with him.

"4:4!"

"4:5!"

"5:5!"

"5:6!"

"6:6!"

The cheers from the sidelines were distant.

The two players eventually tied.

The last ball left, the one that would decide the outcome.

On the badminton court, Lin Shuyue looked at Shen Xinyi, who was waiting in full battle, with an unusually firm gaze and no sign of backing down.

She took a deep breath, bent her knees slightly, and prepared to receive the final ball.

Snapped!
